Conversions
The MODS Editorial Committee maintains several XSLT stylesheets to enable conversion between MODS XML documents and several other commonly used metadata schemas, namely Dublin Core, MARC, and BIBFRAME. These XSLT stylesheets provide conversion of core fields. Please note that these stylesheets are not exhaustive and that some specific data elements may not be included, based on common usage. Since a mapping may not address a specific field required locally, the Editorial Committee recommends that organizations modify these stylesheets to achieve organization-specific goals. To customize any of these stylesheets, download the stylesheet and all related files incorporated via <xsl:include> elements, store them locally, and update any URL references to use the local file path. The MODS Editorial Committee hopes that you will find these XSLT stylesheets helpful for your conversions or as a starting point for your specific needs.
